Athletics

Resurrection has its athletics program, which has recently seen the following teams achieve success at the local and/or provincial levels:

Resurrection has introduced the PEAT athletics program, which is an enrichment program for self-motivated student-athletes who demonstrate exceptional athletic potential in a given sport. The PEAT program will focus on developing transferable skills including speed, agility, endurance, power, and flexibility.

Resurrection is a member of the eight team District 8 Athletic Association.

Academics

During the course of the 2011-2012 school year, Resurrection's Reach for the Top team won the regional tournament for Waterloo, and therefore ended up attending the Provincial championships, where the team placed 13th in the Province.

Resurrection Catholic Secondary School offers a University Cooperative Education Program (UCEP), where students in either grade 12 or 13 spend their first semester at the University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University or St. Jerome's University. The student is then able to gain a co-op position with a professor on any of these campuses.

The Waterloo Catholic Secondary School Board offers a program known as High Skills Major. In this program, the student will receive a number of certifications and will be able to attend courses related to a specific career path such as health and wellness. The student will also take certain courses in their upper years (grade 11 and 12) relating to this career path. For example, in health and wellness a student would have to take some science courses. It is also a necessity to take co-op, and to receive a placement in the career of the student's choice. Once all these requirements are met, students who participated in the program will receive a designation on their diploma.

Student Council

The school has a student council, with two presidents elected by students and a cabinet of ministers with responsibility for different areas of the council.[ citation needed ]
